A Deva is a Sanskrit word that means "divine" or "celestial".

It can be used as an adjective to describe something that is related to the gods, or as a noun to refer to a god or a divine being.

In the Vedic religion of India and later Hinduism, there are many devas, often classified into three groups based on their association with the sky, the air, or the earth.

Some of the most prominent devas are Indra, the king of the gods and the lord of thunder; Agni, the god of fire and sacrifice; Varuna, the god of water and the cosmic order; and Surya, the sun god.

The devas are not immortal, but they live for very long periods of time in a realm called Devaloka, where they enjoy bliss and happiness.

The devas are also involved in the cosmic cycle of creation, preservation, and destruction, and they sometimes interact with humans, either to help them or to test them.

The devas are not the only supernatural beings in Hinduism, as there are also asuras, who are often seen as enemies or rivals of the devas; yakshas, who are nature spirits; and gandharvas, who are celestial musicians.

The concept of deva is also found in other religions and cultures, such as Buddhism, Jainism, Zoroastrianism, and Balinese Hinduism.

The word deva is related to the Latin word divus, which means "god", and the English word divine.
